A Corvette Hobby...Or Obsession?

Darryl Yoes

My name is Darryl Yoes and like many men of my age, I grew up with a passion for Corvettes. I like them all, but have always had a fondness for the mid ‘70s cars as they were the ones that I dreamed of owning as a teenager.

The Jent Story

Carol Jent

I’m Carol Jent and I have loved Corvettes since the day they came out in 1953. I remember seeing one for the first time in Decatur, Ill. in 1953. I was 11 and I loved it! I’ve always loved vehicles and I remember thinking it was a neat little sports car. I knew since that day, that I would own one.

It is All About The Journey

Glenn Russell

Glenn Russell knew from his first ride in a 1967 Coupe at age 15 that he would own a Corvette. Thirty-six years
later, Glenn and his wife, Wendy, purchased a 1986 Coupe to take on weekend trips. Those trips soon became
a shared adventure.

Persistence and Patience

Bryan Webster

"What is that?" I asked myself in 2007 at age thirteen when a C3 Corvette flew past the family sedan. I had no idea what this car was – all I knew was that I loved it! The fiery red paint, the sweeping body lines, the wide tires and that ever-so-soothing V-8 rumble had me hooked.

On the Road & On the Track

Jeff Sinn

There is nothing like having your first Corvette, a magnetic red metallic 2004 C5 convertible, driving with the top down, on a long stretch of highway or out on the track. This is where the fun begins!
